Hi Patrick, very nice, thank you! Just some questions that came to my head: 1) The snipped feature uses the tab key for triggering *further* information, right? (If I remember correctly) I knew a similar feature (was it in AlphaX/Tk?) where the tab helped me to *complete* the command. For example: \cha + tab gave \chapter or when not clear like: \sub + tab gave a range with all commands starting with \sub... to choose. In textmate triggering the snipped with tab just works when typed the entire \chapter, right? There is no-one helping me typing when I get lazy? 2) You assigned F9 to texexec and so on. When, for some rare reason, I need to change the texexec a bit (with additional options or such), where to do so? 3) Probably a similar (stupid) question: You wrote "the variable PDF_VIEWER, the default is 'Preview'. You can try anything that you can use as an argument for 'open'..." Well, where do I find this in order to have a try? Steffen
